WARNING!
Your mower is equipped with numerous built-in
safety features. However, the mower is a hazardous
device with a sharp blade, which can cause major
injury to anyone who comes in contact with it.
Therefore, it is absolutely forbidden to be on the
lawn while the mower is working. Alternatively,
halt the mower’s operation when people (especially
children) or pets are to stay or play on the lawn.
A. Child Lock
The Child Lock prevents unintended operation of
the mower by an accidental press of one of the
buttons. Only pressing two buttons in the right
order will initiate the operation. It is required to
activate the Child Lock feature if children under
age 6 may come in contact with the mower.
B. Anti-Theft / Disabling Device
The Anti-Theft / Disabling Device system function
will prevent anyone from using or driving the
mower unless they have a valid code to enter.
You will be prompted to enter a four digit code of
your choice to use as your personal security
code. It is highly recommended to activate this
feature to prevent operation of the mower by
children or people who are unfamiliar with the
mower or not allowed to use it.

D. Tilt Sensor
If the mower is tilted up towards a vertical position, the
blade will stop immediately.
E. Obstruction Sensor

movement in that direction and reverse itself away from
the obstacle.
F. Emergency Stop Button
Pressing STOP at any time during operation will stop the
mower and the blade immediately.
G. Safety Switch
Switching off the Safety Switch will prevent any operation
of the mower. It is required to switch it off before lifting the
mower and before any maintenance is done.

Perimeter Wire
The mower cannot operate without a Perimeter Wire
installed and activated through the Base Station /
Perimeter Switch. In the event the Perimeter Wire signal
is turned off, the mower will stop operating.

If the mower is raised from the ground during
the blade’s operation, the blade will stop rotating
immediately.

Welcome
to a friendly home
Congratulations on your purchase! You are just a few steps
away from meeting your best team player. Very soon you will
come to count on your new friend to do a perfect job.
The mower will independently depart from its Base Station
on predetermined days and times, mow your lawn and return
to base for charging.
A preinstalled perimeter wire sets the boundaries (a “virtual
wall”) for your mower. It will be laid around the edges of your
lawn, and objects that you want to protect.
The mower moves randomly within its working area, as
defined by the perimeter wire. This kind of random movement
provides the perfect cut and ensures complete coverage of
your lawn.

15
In addition, it centers itself on top of the perimeter wire to
ensure accurate, flawless edging.
Good-looking lawns are achieved by consistent mowing,
which is exactly what a robotic mower provides.
After following the clear installation instructions, you will be
ready to enjoy your free time, while your new friend looks
after your lawn.
